Crestfallen Roses
“In silent seclusion, we question the haunting whispers while losing air, craving just one last second within moving minutes of healing” Quote by Poet
I'm lost between dusky dews of twilight,
tethered to the tomb of withered flowers,
trailing souvenirs within frosted hours,
as stars wane like ghosts, stealing the skylight,
splattering ink across a somber maze
in hues of dreams

Crestfallen
The only place I can find peace right now is the night sky,
My heart is broken again, remembering her wickedness,
The eventide breeze tryin’ to comfort my sadness,
And I, tryin’ to hold back the tears in my eyes.
My heart is a bit heavy to lift by some gleeful memories,
Wish to walk with my shadow in this

The Crooning Bee
My heart feels crestfallen
Whenever I think about that day
She looked like a bee collecting pollen
In the garden of Deity as she pray
The raven attire on the pale skin
The ample lips and the double chin
Crooning behind the queen bee
Her voice was faint yet bold as the sea
I kept admiring the charm of the damsel
But she paid

Crestfallen Smile
Like lightning falling from heaven,
your last fling ended without warning
Bewitching Boston Creole buxom beauty,
your crestfallen smile told a tragic love story
Superhuman strength from an unknown source
moved you on your curvaceous Amazon course
I watched from a low hanging urban perch
as you floated with sassafras ease towards me
Suddenly you stopped right in front of my eyes,
and started

Emily Crestfallen
one two three four
Emily Crestfallen
sits on the shore
five six seven eight
she's not worrying
about her fate
nine ten eleven twelve
she loves to read
books from her shelf
thirteen fourteen enough said
she's still lonely
she's still sad
but the waves crash
on rocks so old
and the sea will not answer
it's simply too cold
Emily waits
without a move
for months and years
still nothing

Crestfallen Angel
My crestfallen angel, I see your soul cry. I see you live in darkness, waiting and praying to die.
Your deep souls complexion, and the burden you bear. Scream to me so silent. A feeling so rare.
You wonder out, to not be seen. You can run and run, but can't hide it from

Crestfallen - Quatern
Crestfallen (Quatern)
And now - there is but emptiness
slow breathing of unscented air
that on my soul did so impress
the aura of her presence near.
The wine’s been poured, the bottle passed,
and now - there is but emptiness
cold loneliness of shadow cast
sweet fading touch of parting’s kiss.
Lingering hints of love’s duress
shared secrets that we could not bear
and now

The Onset of Crestfallen Poetry
Stifled tears
Recorded in
The pages of
An old diary
Made immortal
In the hearts of
Kindred souls
Awakened
By the dawns of
Early light
Cradled thoughts
Luminous indeed
A way for the soul to
Release its many burdens of
Life and lost love

A Crestfallen Heart
A crestfallen heart, a demon’s delight
Served up as the main course
At their banquet tonight
An agonized soul
Devoured as well
Until the darkness of night
When they rise up from hell
Locked shutters or doors
Provide no respite
From the heart break and pain
Bestow the midst of the night
Sorrow and sadness,

Crestfallen
Yesterday's studying lies in await. Glancing over my notes revealed decisions were
made on a certain date.
Feeling helpless caused me to realize that no matter what I do, I could not change
things for the moment.
Today was the appearance. It was too late. These past several months led me into
a battle of words causing

Crestfallen
Mother sobbed throughout the night.
Her face was ashen,
Chasms carved where her tears would run.
Her profound beauty,
All but dust in the wind.
I can barely recognize her now.
Father left.
He Said,
"How can I love a memory.
A fleeting one at best?
The doctors could not help,
So what good am I?"
As he walked out the door.
She needed no reminder,
Of

Crestfallen
Wait for the rain to die
Wait,for the tears to dry
Wait for the mist to go
Wait,for trust to flow
Wait for anger to cool
Wait,for love to rule
Wait for scars to heal
Wait,as forgiveness heals
Wait on without fear
Wait,as comfort draws near
Wait for passion's call
Wait,and stand tall
